This narrative poem is a fascinating type of hypertext because instead of having five primary nodes from which to follow linear threads it uses a layering interface for navigation. The reader, instead of clicking on links, scrapes away at images to reveal an image beneath, and can continue to scrape away until she reaches the end of that narrative thread. This allows readers to reveal more than one layer at a time, as pictured above in a screenshot of three layers in the introduction. (Source: Leonardo Flores, I ♥ E-Poetry)

These images were derived from four murals which Olsen created at the University of Miami. Toby Holland wrote the java program which drives the project. The text was written by Jerome Fletcher.
